     Certain inventories are stated on the last-in, first-out (LIFO) basis
     for their labor and material content, and other inventories are stated
     on the first-in, first-out (FIFO) basis.

     Because the inventory determination under the LIFO method can only be
     made at the end of each fiscal year based on the inventory levels and
     costs at that time, interim period LIFO determinations must necessarily
     be based upon management's estimates of expected year-end inventory
     levels and costs.

Note 2 - Stock Options

     As of January 31, 1995, options to purchase 427,059 shares of common
     stock were outstanding and 1,111,353 shares of common stock were available
     for future grants under the Company's Stock Option and Employee Stock
     Purchase Plans.  At the annual meeting of stockholders held on
     November 9, 1994, the number of shares of common stock available for
     future grants under the Company's Stock Option and Employee Stock
     Purchase Plans was increased by 500,000.

     The Company has authorized 50,000,000 shares of common stock and has
     issued 22,796,176.  Of these shares, 986,780 have been repurchased and
     724,584 have been reissued under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan and
     through the exercise of stock options.  The number of shares held in
     treasury at January 31, 1995 is 262,196.  At July 31, 1994,  22,796,176
     shares had been issued of which 986,780 had been repurchased and 583,957
     have been reissued.  The number of shares held in treasury at
     July 31, 1994 was 402,823.

Note 3 - Changes in Accounting

     In the first quarter ended October 31, 1993, the Company adopted
     Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 106 (SFAS 106),
     "Employers' Accounting for Post-Retirement Benefits Other than Pensions",
     and Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 (SFAS 109),
     "Accounting for Income Taxes."

     Effective August 1, 1994, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
     Accounting Standards No. 115 (SFAS 115), "Accounting for Certain
     Investments in Debt and Equity Securities."  SFAS No. 115 requires
     securities that are available-for-sale be carried at fair value, with
     changes in net unrealized gains and losses recorded as a separate
     component of shareholders' equity.  Previously, fixed income securities
     classified as available-for-sale were carried at the lower of amortized
     cost or fair value, determined in the aggregate.  The adoption of this
     statement had no impact on net

     available-for-sale securities were $451,000, with gross realized losses
     of $49,000.  The amortized cost of these securities was based on specific
     identification.  No securities during the period were classified as

     sale securities from August 1, 1994 to January 31, 1995 was $160,000 (net

     Results of Operations
     ---------------------------

     There have been no material changes in financial condition since our
     preceding fiscal year which ended July 31, 1994.

     For the three month period ended January 31, 1995, net sales increased
     15.0% to $176,165,000.  Net income for the second quarter increased 4.7%
     to $13,436,000 or 60 cents per share, from $12,833,000 or 58 cents per
     share in fiscal 1994.  Pretax income for the quarter was up by $1,107,000
     or 5.5%.

     For the six month period ended January 31, 1995, net sales increased
     12.4% to $334,518,000.  Net income before accounting changes for the first
     half increased 5.3% to $25,079,000 or $1.12 per share, from $23,821,000
     or $1.08 per share in fiscal 1994.  Pretax income excluding accounting
     changes for the half was up by $2,274,000 or 6.1%.

     Cost of goods sold represented 64.5% of sales versus 62.2% in the second
     quarter of fiscal 1994.  The second quarter of fiscal 1995 includes a
     LIFO charge of approximately $2.3 million or 6.7 cents per share as a
     result of higher paper costs.  Cost of goods sold for the first half was
     64.4% in fiscal 1995 versus 62.4% in fiscal 1994.  Total LIFO charges
     for the first half were $3.6 million or 10.3 cents per share.  There was
     no LIFO provision made during the first half of fiscal 1994.

     Selling and administrative expenses were 18.7% of sales versus 19.7% in
     the second quarter last year.  For the first half of fiscal 1995,
     expenses are 18.9% of sales versus 20.0% in fiscal 1994.

     The provision for depreciation and amortization is up 10.6% in the first
     half from fiscal 1994.  This increase is the result of the company's
     continued reinvestment in capital resources and system development.

     Interest income for the first half increased by $360,000 or 22.2% from
     the same period one year ago.  The increase in interest income is due to
     generally higher interest rates.  Interest expense, which is shown net of
     capitalized interest, increased $63,000 or 10.0% between years.  Increased
     interest expense is attributable to higher interest rates on our variable
     rate Industrial Revenue Bonds, and from the addition of an IRB for the
     new Lebanon facility.

     Operating income for the quarter was up $973,000 or 5.0%.  For the first
     half, operating income was up $1,977,000 or 5.5%.  For fiscal 1995 this
     represents 11.4% to sales versus 12.2% for fiscal 1994.

     Liquidity and Capital Resources
     -----------------------------------------

     Working capital increased by $3,655,000 from July 31, 1994, with a current
     ratio of 3.8 at January 31, 1995.  Long-term debt includes $23,500,000 of
     industrial revenue bonds at rates ranging from 3.75% to 3.9%.  Long-term
     debt currently represents 5.2% of total capitalization.

     Liquidity and Capital Resources (continued)

     Capital expenditures for the first six months totaled $25,087,000.  For
     the full fiscal year, we project expenditures of $50.0 million, which
     will be financed through internally generated funds and by the Industrial
     Revenue Bond for our Lebanon facility.

     Stockholders' equity increased by 4.8% to $429.6 million at
     January 31, 1995.  Since October 1992, the Company has repurchased
     964,150 shares of common stock at an average price of $25.86, or
     $24,932,000.  Of these shares, 617,124 were reissued to employees under
     the Employee Stock Purchase Plan, and 107,460 were issued through the
     exercise of stock options.  The Company's authorization to repurchase
     additional shares expired on July 31, 1993.

     The current portion of long-term debt includes debt assumed in connection
     with the acquisition of MGI Companies and Evergreen Realty.  The final
     payment on current debt of $2,959,000 was paid in December 1994.  The
     final payment on $2,981,000 is due in July 1995.

     Cash balances remain adequate to fund current operations.  We do not
     anticipate a need to borrow funds in the near future.

     Current inventory levels are in-line with the inventory levels necessary
     to satisfy customer demand.  We anticipate having adequate sources of
     supply of raw materials to meet the future requirements of our business.

     -------

     On November 29, 1994, we completed the acquisition of the assets of
     Lampro Graphics, Inc.  This acquisition was a cash transaction and will
     be accounted for using the purchase method.  The acquisition is not
     expected to materially impact the Company's results for fiscal 1995.
